London, August 3.  Catch Club.  The members of this Society
were debating who had ever made the best catch, and of
course the courtly society gave the palm to the Lord
President; but a much stronger debate arising what was the
best catch of the many composed by his Lordship, the
President then said, or sung, 
  To catch a Printer tripping in his trade
  Is much the richest catch I ever made.
